After years of back and forth with local officials, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency last week released a pollution control plan that identifies storm-water runoff as the main source of pollutants in Hinkson Creek. On today's program, panelists explain what pollution in the creek means to the average citizen of mid-Missouri. We also look at how Hinkson Creek might be cleaned up, how quickly it could happen, and how much the clean-up efforts might cost taxpayers like you.

Panelists:Ken Midkiff, member of the Sierra Club, Osage Group and columnist for the Columbia Daily Tribune Karen Miller, Boone County southern district commissioner
